Most leg exercise work the glutes to some degree, but squats and stiff leg deadlifts work for me and there are some machines where you can do a resistance kneeling kick backs which also work the glutes well!

lol The leg curl works the hamstring area primarily, I woukd use lunges to finish the routine off rather than leg curls

agreed, Glute hamstring raises are good, any compound leg excercise is gonna hit the glutes too

Yea, just deepen your squats and leg press, unless you want to get on the Butt-Blaster.

squats and deadlifts.

Your glutes could be developing, just might be foreshadowed by excess fat. Like said above, any compound leg movement (most multi-joint exercises) will indirectly or directly hit the glutes. Deepening squats will induce more of a stretch.

Deadlifts are primarily a glute, hip and hamstring movements (romanian or stiff) depending on torso angling. Lunges, GHR's, Squats, etc. are/will recruit the glutes.
